Brent,
I am so glad that you posted about the harsh rebound. I could never have imagined that the rebound would hurt worse than the bound! Granted, I had already bunged up my wrist in a stupid stunt, but I was recovering fine, until I road my 2011 with forks that I had just gotten back from Les (not his fault really). I put them at the specs he suggestioned, rode about 14 miles and was a cripple. I had been playing with the compression during that ride and just kept thinking, @#$damn this hurts! We got back to camp and I tried dialing in a lot of rebount, it was the only thing left, and it smoothed way out. I can deal with it now, and seem to be getting used to it (i also put the softest bumpers in the flexx bars) but still I can feel the forks spazzing out over quick stuff sometimes. I need to get it out to the forest now and see how it does in the roots.
I think that I have rebound 2-4 clicks out from fully closed.
